Just James : The Brother of Jesus in History and Tradition Hardback
by John Painter
Edited by D.Moody Smith
Part of the Studies on Personalities of the New Testament series
Hardback
Description
A second edition of ""Just James"" became necessary with the announcement of the discovery of a Jewish ossuary, or burial box, inscribed in Aramaic with the words, as commonly translated, ""James son of Joseph brother of Jesus"".
Through the publicity surrounding the controversial discovery many people are now aware that Jesus of Nazareth had a famous brother named James.
How does the ossuary relate to understanding ""that"" James and ""that"" Jesus?
This work sets out the varied considerations concerning this question while providing access to the early sources concerning James.
In the process John Painter buttresses the case for recognizing James as the direct successor to Jesus and the leader of the original Christian movement in Jerusalem.
